    Death of a Game - Everquest franchise

    Lol. Wish the guild on my server had helped like that. Unless you were one of the core classes whose epic was considered important to advance the guild, you were pretty much left to your own devices. SK epic was low priority for us. But I had fun getting my friends together for most of the hard...

    Fallout 76

    Pretty much. But the other side of it is that now days there isn't any need for the cable tv bundles. Cut the cord for good finally and love it. Paid CBS for a month of time last year to watch the new Star Trek series. Binged it then canceled. They literally had nothing else to offer that I...

    Path of Exile

    Bought one of those $60 packs that came with coins. Just wanted more bag space basically. The armor was a bonus.

    Death of a Game - Everquest franchise

    Having to kill Cazic Thule for the SK epic was intense. I still remember the first time seeing the SK epic. Thought it was so f'ing cool. My desire for that damn weapon pretty much set me on the course to join the best guild on my server since they were the only ones capable of killing Cazic at...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Yes, very true. And those are my biggest concerns for these games. Making mmos is incredibly hard to do, especially on the cheap. I fully understand that all of these games will probably fail for one reason or another. But that is true of all creative endeavors. If it was easy we wouldn't be...

    Not in the mmo space. If there is a modern mmo like Pantheon out there, let me know. Same thing with Crowfall / Camelot Unchained.

    Well if I regretted my decision, then you might have a point. But I know what Kickstarter and crowdfunding in general is about, and never had any illusions about it. It's free money for the devs. That's why I have only ever used kickstarter for those 3 games I mentioned. They were the only...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Kickstarters are about giving up money for hopium. Didn't you get the memo? Lol. If you don't like Kickstarter that's fine, but don't blame Brad for your issues. And I didn't actually give them any money until about a year ago when they were doing the alpha push. Considered doing the 1k thing...

    So the game being built, coders and artists being hired, progress being made is a scam? Cool. Sign me up. If Booze can do the same then he deserves the money. But he's all mouth with no brains, or ambition. You all make it sound so easy, and yet I see nothing from you except whining and snark...

    You should, really. But it will take more work than a cute one liner to get the page up and people believing in you. Much more work than you are capable of imo. Good luck.

    Gave 300 ea to Pantheon, Crowfall and Camelot. A lot of you think that's nuts, but I want to support the people who are trying to make the games I prefer. I fully realize that at least one (or maybe even all) of these games will be shit, or never released. That's fine, losing the money doesn't...

    Fallout 76

    I still enjoy the game, so it's very hard for me to understand all of the hate. Although, was never a big fan of the Fallout universe anyways, so wasn't expecting much. Agree with @Daidraco, this controversy should force them to reconsider some of their complacent attitudes towards the fans and...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    If they have events like the annual Steam sales then i'm fucked. I'm a sucker for the "90 PERCENT OFF!" 2 dollar game that just sits in my HUGE inventory of other unplayed games.

    The Outer World

    Pretty tired of the Fallout / Bioshock retro art design. It makes even less sense in a space game. But whatever, if it's a fun game, I'll play.

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Pretty hard to beat Steam at this point, but I hope they can pull it off. Use to be against even looking at other platforms, Steam was good enough for me and if the game wasn't there, I didn't play it. But now I have Uplay, Origin, etc. sitting on the task bar for a couple of games I wanted to...

    Fallout 76

    Patch today. Just curious. Is there any amount of fixing that would bring some of you to this game? If so, what would you need to see? Try to be realistic (full immersion VR suits, no). Do you think it needs a full overall like FFXIV? Or would some timely patches be enough. Would be interested...

    Lol, McDonalds is the most successful restaurant of all time. So by your logic you hate all other restaurants and, think only McDonalds is good. And that all other restaurants should only copy McDonalds. Lol, yeah right. Try again. edit: Oh and Mobile is about to kill all PC games. Why are you...

    Seriously, Fuck you and your lies. At this point in time EQ is even older, uglier and less relevant than WoW. Haven't played it in years. And I have never once had a positive review about Pantheon, BECAUSE I HAVEN"T PLAYED THE GAME. There is nothing to review. Unlike you circle jerks, I think...

    My first experience with WoW was after BC came out. Before that I played EQ for years. After leaving EQ, went and played other mmos (FFXI, Tabula Rasa Planetside, Guild Wars, etc) before finally trying WoW. First impression of WoW after playing other very different mmo's, was that it was a...

    Played X2 years ago. Meant to just run through it to figure out the story before moving on to X3. Graphics were butt ugly and controls a bit of a pain. But I ended up getting lost in the game and didn't come out for months. Never did finish the story or get to X3. Wierd game but I enjoyed it...

    Fallout 76

    Lol. They give away those coins for just playing the game. I already have 800 or so and just putzed around for a few days. I'm rooting for them to fix things but this isn't helping them win back the hearts and minds.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Agree. Sony fixed FFXIV after a horrible launch but that was the exception. They have DEEP pockets and losing face wasn't an option for them. For every other mmo, if you have a bad launch then the fans will turn on you. They never let you forget it, and never give you a second chance. Vanguard...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I've heard a lot of veteran players say they like scaling, and that may work for WoW since new players are not their target audience anymore. But for many players scaling just plain sucks. Scaling turned WoW into the most tediously boring experience I've ever had in any MMO. That is no...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Speeding up the leveling process is a good thing. But it won't fix the scaling problem - all content is boring now. Leveling gives you no sense of progression or accomplishment. There is no danger in higher level zones and no ability to destroy everything with one swing in lower level zones. Its...

    Black Desert

    Game has some of the best graphics and combat of any mmo. The crafting, fishing, economy, horse breeding, etc is different, very involved and kind of cool. The world feels alive with tons of players always on and filling the main cities. Haven't played in a while so maybe some of this has...

    Fallout 76

    This year and last has been pretty good for gamers saying "NO MORE". Although the outrage had been building, it seemed to reach full steam with Battlefront 2's P2W garbage, Destiny 2's bad launch, WoW's BFA issues, Diablo Immortal and now F76. Whether you agree with the outrage or not, it is...

    Fallout 76

    Not at all. If you don't like the game, it's legitimate. I'm just talking about the amount of tears. This game runs just like the other Fallout games. It's clunky, but that's true for all of their games. Why so bent now? It didn't bother anyone before. So they added PvP, I've never been...

    LOL, you can do better than that. Do you need a safe space? I agree with many of the other issues that have come up lately with other games, etc. And the outrage was / is warrented. But this time around it just seems a bit forced and more of a "Outrage of the Month" thing. Something for the...

    Heheh, your reaction speaks for it self. Thanks for proving my point. The amount of crying this game has produced in the fans is amazing. Sorry your dog died.. nah, not really. I assume that Bethesda will make changes that mollify the fans that are so traumatized by this experience. Don't...

    Never multi boxed in WoW, but did try it at the end of my EQ career. Changed the game and made it interesting again, creating a little mini squad to take on old content and new. Kept me playing EQ a couple of more years. Never had more than 4 clients going though. I found 2 boxing and 3 boxing...

    Oh come on. Lying about me doesn't help your cause. Makes you pretty pathetic though. I'm not defending the game. If you don't like the game, etc, that's legitimate. I'm just laughing at how bent out of shape everyone is. Lots of fragile flowers crying is funny to me.
